9+ Family Reunion Invitation Templates

What’s better than getting the chance to spend time with all your family members for a special occasion? And we’re not even referring to just the immediate family members, we’re talking about aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, grandparents, and all the extended family members. When it comes to reunions, nothing can top family-related ones.

Though it may seem sensible to simply reach out for the phone and invite your family from there, it’s always better to actually go the extra mile for occasions like this? Make invitations, send them out, and wait for the response—that would be the best thing to do, and we’ve got invitation templates below just for you.

Elements of a Good Classic Family Reunion Invitation

1. Name of the host: According to the hierarchy of content for invitation cards, the topmost element should be the name of the event host, and this serves to inform invitees who is behind the event. There may be times wherein the host would ask another person or even a professional event planner to plan the entire gathering, but it is no longer necessary to also include their name on the invitation. You will only need to acknowledge the person who has made the entire family reunion possible.

2. Title of the event: The previous element focuses on informing the invitee who is hosting the event, which may seem unnecessary but is actually an essential part of the invitation. The title, however, is just as essential since it informs readers what kind of gathering they have been invited to. In this scenario, the title would indicate “family reunion” unless a more creative play on words would be used for an added twist.

3. Invitation statement: An invitation statement can be as simple as “the [host] invites you to” or “you are cordially invited to”, or as more thorough as needed to fully express the host’s intention of inviting the reader to the event. Short invitation statements are very common among casual invitation cards while the longer ones are common among formal and business invitation types.

4. Schedule of the event: The schedule includes both the time and the date that the event will take place, which is what readers usually want to know from invitation cards. When creating casual invitations, you may be allowed to use numbers and abbreviations, but for formal ones, you are required to write everything in complete words. Considering that invitations should be sent out between four to eight weeks prior to the event, you should start preparing them a week or at least a couple of days before sending them out.

5. Name and address of the venue: When stating the location on the invitation card, don’t just settle for the name of the venue. Even if you are very certain that all your expected guests know where the venue is located, you should also include its complete street address together with the name. For hard to find places, you may either include some landmarks enclosed in a pair of parentheses, or you may also put a small map of the place.

6. Host’s contact details: The host of the event should also remember to include their contact details on the invitation to allow invitees to contact them easily. This usually happens when the invitee needs to ask questions to the host regarding the event, or if they need to confirm their attendance when RSVP cards aren’t used.

How to Create a Classic Family Reunion Invitation

1. Set a budget for creating your invitations: Before proceeding directly to all the technical aspects of creating invitations, it is very important to set an estimated budget first. How much are you actually willing to spend to create your family reunion invitations?

2. Decide on the theme of the invitation: This answers the question as to whether you want your invitations to have a minimalist or a colorful look, or if you want to go modern or old-school. Based on the budget that you have just set, decide on the theme that you want to use for your invitation’s design.

3. Choose an invitation type: Considering that the event that you are putting together is a family reunion, you can already narrow down your choices for the types of invitations. But still, you will need to choose a particular type of invitation that you wish to use for your event.

4. Determine the appropriate size for your invitations: After choosing the type of invitation, the next thing that you will choose is the size. Oftentimes, the type and size go hand in hand, but you can also choose to have them as separate traits.

5. Make a list of the invitees: Making a guest list can actually help you to determine how many copies of the invitation you will need to print. You may be allowed to do this in the earlier stages of the process, or right before printing out your invitations.

6. Download and edit an invitation template: Making invitations isn’t really difficult as long as you know what to put into it. However, if you want to ensure that your content is relevant, then you might as well download an invitation template. This way, it’ll save you a lot of time since you can go directly to the editing phase after downloading the template.

7. Print copies of your invitation: Based on the list that you have just created, print out the necessary number of copies of your invitation card. In addition, it would be best to print a few extra copies just in case there is a need to distribute more at the last minute.

Simple Tips for an Excellent Classic Family Reunion Invitation Layout

Types of Invitations

1. Event invitation: The first type of invitation on this list is the event invitation, and when we say events, it can range from all sorts of gatherings such as birthday celebrations, graduations, reunions, ribbon cutting events, and many more. In other words, this type of invitation is the go-to type, wherein it can be used for almost anything that involves a large number of people.

2. Party invitation: Unlike the event invitations, this one is a little more specific in the sense that it is used specifically for parties. Then again, the term party is still quite broad but not as broad as an event. According to a definition, a party is gathering of people invited by a host for the purpose of recreation and/or socialization. From that definition alone, it’s obvious what type of invitation needs to be used.

3. Formal invitation: Formal events require the use of formal invitations, and this is not just to be practical, but it is also what’s proper. A formal invitation is very notable for its tone, specifically, the way the date and time are being written. Another is that formal invitation almost always come with an RSVP, and this can either be attached to the invitation card itself or printed on a separate card.

4. Wedding invitation: To some, they would consider wedding invitations as a sub-category of the formal invitation, which is somewhat true because of the tone and the use of the RSVP. However, this type of invitation is specifically intended for weddings only, hence the name. And also, unlike most formal invitations, wedding invitations also come with a program and a list of the guests who have specific roles.

5. Business invitation: A business invitation is something that can be used in different ways. Some of the most common ways that a business invitation is used include inviting people within the business to meetings and conferences, inviting people outside the business to seminars, and inviting other business professionals into initiating a partnership.

6. Handwritten invitation: From the name itself, handwritten invitations indeed have their content written by hand, and this requires a lot of effort and focus to create. However, this type of invitation is only recommended for small gatherings that are attended by no more than fifty people. This will allow the person creating the invitation enough time to put more attention into the details of the design and content.

7. Pocket invitation: Speaking of details on the design and content, this type of invitation is one that tries not to get left behind. The reason behind that is because pocket invitations are quite heavy on the decorative elements, and this makes them easily stand out despite their size. Also, regardless of how small they are, pocket invitations are able to hold a lot of relevant information.

8. Electronic invitation: Electronic invitations work hand in hand with electronic mails since it is how these are sent out. Just like the email, this requires the use of the internet and can be received by the recipient in a matter of seconds. Electronic invitations are usually used as a last option when there are constraints in terms of distance and/or time.
